Pictures of our platypus lapbook!

I wrote about our platypus lapbook last night. We finished it today and we had a LOT of fun doing this together! The one thing I didn't think about when we made this, but that I'll be sure to incorporate into future books, is a reference page. Bad me. Oh well. It was our first learning experience and I think we are going to have a blast doing more of these in the future. Ethan has already expressed interest in doing other books on the solar system as well as the process by which paper is made. Should be interesting. For this first book, our focus was mainly on learning how to group information and deciding what should be in the book. For future books, we'll add more handwriting to them and other things. Here are the pictures of our book:
